Undies Project Announces Mardi Bra Drive to Help Those In Need

The 2018 Undies Project Mardi “Bra” campaign starts January 29 and organizers are asking for the community’s help and support in the Greenwich and Stamford area.

“We are collecting new, and gently used, bras to donate to those less fortunate who are on low incomes,” said Lucy Langley and Laura Delaflor in a release on Wednesday. “For them a bra is a big expense.”

The Undies Project urges the community to take the time to purchase a new bra, or to look in their drawers for gently used, hardly worn bras that they no longer need.

There is always a shortage of bras of all sizes, but in particular sizes 34-38.

Bras can be dropped off at the following local businesses from Monday, January 29 until Tuesday, February 13.

Some local businesses are getting in on the fun and holding their own in-house Mardi “Bra” drives: the Greenwich and Old Greenwich offices of Berkshire Hathaway Home Services and Titan Advisors in Stamford.

All donations received will be distributed to local organizations that help those in need.

The mission of The Undies Project is to provide new underwear to men, women and children in need to improve their lives. Underwear is the most under-donated, and most needed, item of clothing that many of us take for granted. No one should be deprived of the simple, daily necessity of clean underwear. Hygiene and physical comfort are only a part of this basic human need. New, clean underwear also provides dignity and self esteem.
